Just like that, Tang Wulin immersed himself in his cultivation. The improvements in his soul power and bloodline power were merged through the continuous tempering of his own body.
Twenty days passed by in the blink of an eye. The Shrek Seven Monsters arrived at the Star Luo Continent for the second time.
When they landed silently and set foot on the Star Luo Empire, Xie Xie could not restrain himself from stealing a few glances at Tang Wulin. Apart from meeting A Ruheng the other day, Tang Wulin had secluded himself. No one saw him during that period.
Xie Xie felt the strongest impact after meeting Tang Wulin again. His martial soul, the Twin Dragon Becomes One had evolved into the Space-time Dragon which was an entity that controlled the powers of space and time. The Space-time Dragon was the beloved child of space and time. It could utilize various space-time powers to enhance itself.
Since Tang Wulin's Spirit Domain had awakened, Xie Xie would lose control over space and time whenever he was around.
Simply put, the difference between both of them was that one of them only utilized the space-time power while the other actually had control over it. Xie Xie took it to heart which put him in a sulking mood.
Before they left the Dou Spirit Empire, Xie Xie felt a strong sense of suppression each time he met Tang Wulin. It was not from his fear of Tang Wulin but the suppression of his martial soul. In addition, he could not even sense the presence of Tang Wulin near him.
At the moment when everyone was disembarking from the ship, Xie Xie's sharp senses detected that Tang Wulin had changed.
Compared to before, Tang Wulin was now simple and unadorned. Before, his spiritual domain flowed out of him casting him in a mysterious light whenever someone set eyes on him. Currently, he seemed so normal.
On closer inspection, however, there was an ambiguity about him. Only the people with cultivation bases such as Xie Xie's could perceive it. What this meant was Tang Wulin would appear to be a different person each time he was being observed.
'No way big brother's able to contain his own essence in just twenty days? It's unbelievable. '
Naturally, Tang Wulin could not completely control his improved strength just yet. No matter how gifted he was, twenty days were just too short.
Within these twenty days, he had only managed to complete the Body Sect's Innate Secret Technique of tempering with his body once. He somehow managed to control his aura so it would not leak out.
If he wanted to accomplish the Innate Secret Technique, he reckoned that he would need a year if he kept up the tempering pace. Until then, he would have to face the problem of breaking through to become a Title Douluo.
With the improvement in his cultivation base, the merging of his Golden Dragon King bloodline, the improvements in his spiritual power, and the favor of the plane, he felt as if a channel had formed when water flowed every time he cultivated.
Compared to the difficulties he faced during his early years when cultivating, it was now a breeze. The contrast in the difficulty was as obvious as the difference between the skies and the earth. Although Tang Wulin had to risk the Golden Dragon King running amok at any time, his cultivation speed, in terms of strength alone, had far exceeded his comrades.
At present, apart from him, Yuanen Yehui was the only one among the Shrek Seven Monsters whose cultivation base was at rank-79. She was only one step away from a rank-80 Soul Douluo. It was because Yuanen Yehui was slightly older and possessed a twin martial soul which aided in the cultivation process.
As for the others, their cultivation bases were between rank-75 to rank-78. After they had broken through to become Soul Saints, the rate at which their cultivation bases rose would inevitably slow down. It was a problem faced by all soul masters. The Shrek Seven Monsters' cultivation rates were already fast. Tang Wulin once had the lowest soul power rank, but now he had surpassed them all. In terms of combat strength, he was incomparable.
They chose to land in the northern part of the Star Luo Empire. Currently, a chilly sea breeze blew.
The Shrek Seven Monsters, A Ruheng, Sima Jinchi, Tang Wulin's Blood God Unit, and the Holy Spirit Douluo Yali all went ashore together. The other mecha masters sent by the Tang Sect did not follow. He had other plans for them. They would land on a different shore and move toward Star Luo City to await orders.
There were only three people who came to meet them. The one in front was a middle-aged man who was in his forties. He had a faint smile on his face. When he saw them flying across the sea's surface, he walked up to welcome them.
Tang Wulin focused his attention on the other two who were following behind. They were young, perhaps slightly older than the Shrek Seven Monsters. One was male while the other a female. More importantly, Tang Wulin and the Shrek Seven Monsters knew them.
"May I ask who the Sect Master is?" the middle-aged man in front said with a smile. His physique was unique. Simply put, he was like a ball. In other words, his height was equal to the width of his waist. His huge belly was a sight to behold, even by someone who had seen them all.
His eyes were small. When he smiled, they practically disappeared. His hands were naturally placed on his belly. No matter how they assessed him, he seemed unable to harm a person or even livestock.
Tang Wulin shifted his gaze to the middle-aged man."I am Tang Wulin of the Tang Sect."
"You?" the middle-aged man had yet to utter a word when the two youths behind him exclaimed with surprise. They looked incredulous the moment they saw Tang Wulin.
Tang Wulin smiled faintly."Why? Do I look different? Hua Lantang, Ye Zhi, long time no see."
The two youths were none other than the two heavenly kings out of the seven who represented the Star Luo Empire's Monster Academy in the competition. They were the Wolf King Hua Lantang and the Pagoda King Ye Zhi.
Back then, they left a deep impression in the hearts of the Shrek Seven Monsters. It was especially true for Ye Zhi's inherited martial soul, the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda. It was the best Tool martial soul on the Douluo Continent!
After so many years, they appeared more mature. However, their physical appearances had not changed much. Their jaws dropped as they kept staring at Tang Wulin.
Initially, they were not too surprised to see the Shrek Seven Monsters representing the Tang Sect. After all, they had witnessed the outstanding qualities of the Shrek Seven Monsters.
However, they never expected their former opponent, someone whom they had beaten before, to reappear with a different identity this time. It was kind of unbelievable that Tang Wulin had become the Tang Sect's Sect Master.
To them, Tang Wulin won against Long Yue purely out of luck. Nevertheless, they held the Tang Sect's Sect Master in the highest regard. The Sect Master was one of the greatest soul masters on the entire Douluo Star.
Hence, when Tang Wulin introduced himself, they were filled with incredulity. In any case, this person before them was the Shrek Seven Monsters' leader as well. Even if Shrek Academy no longer existed, they believed that Tang Wulin would not make a joke out of it.
A faint smile appeared on Tang Wulin's face, "Why? Don't I look it?"
Ye Zhi practically blurted, "No, you don't!"
The fat middle-aged man turned and glanced at her as if reprimanding her for her rudeness. Then, he turned around and saluted Tang Wulin respectfully."I'm Tang Sect's Star Luo Empire Branch's person in charge, Hu Jie. I pay my respects to the Sect Master, and I hope the Sect Master won't mind. News of your succession is top secret in our sect. I was the only one who knew about this while they were kept in the dark."
Tang Wulin shook his head."It's alright. We're old friends. Hello, Hall Master Hu."
